until baltimore somehow regresses, and Big Ben is knocked out for good, we'll always be battling with the bengals for who finishes at the bottom.

You kidding? 10 of the first 11 are completely winnable. With Indy being the one that I am thinking we have less of a chance in. Every other of the first 11 are games that shouldnt be much worse than a coin flip. Build some confidence up before the 4 out of 5 ass kicker at the end. Nice way to ease Colt in to a full time role too, not many elite defenses. None of the first 11 teams had a defense in the top third in scoring defense last year.

Oh and fantasy football, i'll miss that too. It makes other games I wouldn't give a fart about interesting.

Agree with that. The NCAA tourny is over. Masters is over. The Sony Ericcson (tennis) is over. Baseball is meh to me. I will not watch the NBA playoffs. So I have a serious sporting gulf laying before me until football returns, and if I don't even get that, I may snap.

Exactly why I don't care if they play. I'll DVR every college game and watch the shit out of that and spend more time on the water, working in the garden, going to the beach, fixing up the house, maybe pick up an AAU team to coach. Anything. Really the NFL is impeding my possible success.

Or I'll sit around and bitch about having nothing to watch.

To be quite honest I'd rather have no football than have to hear one more front- running asshole tell how long they have loved the steelers.
